Procedures Performed

Common outpatient procedures performed at this ambulatory surgery center, based on reported specialties.

Gastroenterology (GI Surgery)6
ColonoscopyA flexible camera examines the full length of the colon to screen for cancer and remove polyps before they become cancerous. Done under sedation, it typically takes 30 to 60 minutes. The bowel prep the day before is the part most patients find hardest.Upper Endoscopy (EGD)A thin camera passed through the mouth examines the esophagus, stomach, and the first part of the small intestine. Used to investigate persistent heartburn, difficulty swallowing, unexplained bleeding, or abdominal pain. Usually takes 15 to 30 minutes under sedation.Flexible SigmoidoscopyExamines the lower portion of the colon only, rather than its full length. Preparation is lighter than a full colonoscopy and sedation is sometimes unnecessary, but it cannot detect problems higher in the colon.Capsule EndoscopyYou swallow a vitamin-sized camera that photographs the small intestine as it passes through — a region that standard scopes cannot easily reach. There is no sedation and no recovery. The capsule passes naturally, and images are reviewed after the fact.ERCPCombines endoscopy and X-ray imaging to diagnose and treat blockages in the bile and pancreatic ducts, most often gallstones stuck in a duct. Unlike a routine endoscopy, it carries a meaningful risk of pancreatitis afterward, so it is used when treatment is likely rather than for screening alone.Hemorrhoid TreatmentShrinks or removes swollen veins in the rectum and anus using rubber band ligation, injection, or surgical removal depending on severity. Banding is quick and typically requires no anesthesia; surgical removal is more effective for advanced cases but recovery is noticeably more uncomfortable.

Very easy experience today. I felt heard, and safe, throughout. Mike, Billy, and Mallie were efficient without making me feel rushed. The anesthesiologist (it's probably your fault I can't remember your name😆) answered my questions patiently. This was my first time meeting Dr. Cozart. I appreciate that he had recommendations based on personal and family history.

Felt like I was an inconvenience to nursing staff and a $ for the MD. After waiting 1 1/2 hrs in waiting room I was met with less than compassionate nurse who told me rudely what all I had done wrong on paperwork. Then she sticks me for IV without warning!! I thought they were supposed to tell you before they stick a person?!?! Not happy with this place!

Been in the waiting room for 2 hours without being called back. A couple stated they were waiting for 3.5 hours on Dr Steele. If you’re that booked up or behind have the decency to let your patients know so they can reschedule! You might have diabetic patients who haven’t eaten since last night and their blood sugar level will have bottomed out waiting on this man. I’m here with my wife and I would’ve been gone a long time ago. I’m sure they’re eating their lunch, while they got us Starving. If you need a colonoscopy go to Howard Memorial in Nashville. Don’t come here

Not something I looked forward too, but EVERYONE was professional. From the time the appointment was scheduled to them calling the day before making sure how the prep was going, and confirming information I needed, to walking out the back door..... it was done with a professional staff and they put me at such ease. My doctor had the best music playing in the procedure room. LOVED IT!!!!
